Mount Saviour Monastery
December 2015
News:
We mailed our Christmas Chronicle and we are grateful for the many
donations we received to pay for our new sidewalk and stairs to the chapel.
On December 5th, a large crowd of Friends of the Monastery attended the
funeral and burial of Enrique Govantes. On the feast of Our Lady
of Guadelupe, Dec. 12th, Br. Antonio Bravo-Lara, a Mexican monk of Christ
in the Desert, transferred his stability and became a member of the Mount
Saviour community. Br. Francis-Michael Zelinski made his simple vows
in the evening. Br. Dominic Savio came back from the seminary to
spend the Christmas break among us. A large crowd, including many
children attended the first Vespers of Christmas which is followed by the
blessing of the Crêche, designed by Br. Dominic Savio.
Happy New Year
